In special education and rural education interface we find important points about teacher training and their reflexes in the schooling of special education students in rural schools. This paper fulfills the objective of analyzing fundamental documents of the two teaching modalities in question in order to understand mainly what concerns teacher training. The methodological path used in the construction of this text was guided by documentary research of four legal documents of the two teaching modalities. In the policy interface, we saw that the investigated documentation shows concern with the quality of teacher training, although it does not deal with careers and professional development, nor with more specific aspects of the role of Higher Education Institutions in their training. In the end, it is hoped that the discussions presented here will help to promote new and denser research on the fundamental role that teachers play in rural schools.

It compares this model with common models such as the academic, Napoleonic, market-oriented and managerial. It undertakes a review of ten published cases studies, each dealing with the oldest public universities in ten Arab countries, using a historical approach, from their inception until 2016. Among the ten public universities, nine fall into the category of the political model, while the tenth represents the Napoleonic model. The discussion opens the field for further research.

Osteoporosis is a growing epidemic that leads to significant morbidity and mortality among the elderly population due to associated fractures that lead to disabilities and reduced quality of life. Bisphosphonates are well-established as a first-line and cost-effective treatment for osteoporosis. Unfortunately, clinicians are often uncertain as to how to select treatments when bisphosphonates are ineffective as initial treatment or contraindicated. Romosozumab and abaloparatide are 2 alternative agents that have been recently FDA approved for the treatment of osteoporosis in postmenopausal women at high risk for fracture or patients who have failed or are intolerant to other osteoporosis therapies. Currently, the National Osteoporosis Foundation (NOF) has no formal recommendations in regard to these 2 novel agents. The purpose of this review is to help guide pharmacists on how to ensure appropriate utilization of these 2 novel bone-forming agents as potential alternatives to bisphosphonate therapy by providing evidence-based recommendations according to the current literature and key counseling points.
